About the 5XXX/6XXX Tester
This document describes the 5XXX/6XXX Tester application. This application checks Power Macintosh and Performa 5200, 5300, 6200, and 6300 series computers for hardware problems that may cause the computer to freeze. The tester only works on Power Macintosh and Performa 5200, 5300, 6200, and 6300 series computers.
Important: The Power Macintosh or Performa 6360 does not have this hardware problem. If you have a Power Macintosh or Performa 6360, you do not need to use the tester program.
If you are experiencing problems with your computer other than system freezing, you should contact an Apple-authorized service provider to obtain a full diagnostic test.
